Okay, so I said from the beginning that drawing every day was my #1 goal and posting said drawings each day was goal #2. Well, I stuck with the #1 and kept drawing even though I wasn’t posting them. Sorry for the mass post here, but it’s with good reason. I started and finished and [...]

I’m excited to point you to two new features  of the site here on Kro Studio. 1. You can now fulfill your curiosity by checking out my c.v. here. It’s been a little subpage of the about for a long time, but I finally updated and uploaded my cv. 2. I updated the class listings. [...]
